New Driveway -life outside computers

[CMonster]

Here is a picture of my new driveway, each concrete cobblestone is 20"x20"x4.5" and weighs a little more than 120lbs. They were hand cast by me, 3 at a time, and inlaid into the driveway a little at a time over a 3 month period (I am still disposing of the old asphault) -90% of the grunt work was also done by me.... my muscle tone has improved as a result

Cool. Did you use epoxy-crete?

Wow! That's pretty cool. <steals idea for mom's new driveway>

Wow! That is absolutely beautiful!

Well I must say that takes some ambition
Looks great.And looks much better than asphalt IMO.

Thanks all! I believe that art is a lifestyle.

Did you use epoxy-crete?

Nope, just the cheap redi-mix stuff in 60# bags, 2bags per block and about 1ltr of an amendment (Silica 200mesh 60%, Feldspar 200mesh 25%, Lime 10%, and Titanium Dioxide 5% -basically old refuse glaze materials that I needed to dispose of).

Plastic forms were well oiled prior to pouring the mix.

I love the sound of a horse and buggy going over a cobblestone road. Clobbidy,clobbidy,clobbidy......

Nice . Very nice. Ah, the things you can do when you don't have to worry about snow.

how about grass growing up in the cracks? sealed well? how long do you think it will last? looks great
